Police made a huge drug bust in New Albany on Monday, seizing tens of thousands of dollars worth of marijuana, which may be linked to a larger operation. As WAVE 3's Elizabeth Donatelli reports, police were tipped off by the people who were arrested.
Yvonne Kersey called police to her home in the 600 block of East Main Street in New Albany, alleging she was the victim of a computer crime. When officers arrived, at least one officers smelled marijuana before Kersey invited them inside.
Once inside, Captain Greg Pennell discovered marijuana plants and more than 20 pounds of the drug already packaged -- which is far too much to have come from the few plants they discovered.
"I believe they are also going to follow up with this investigation as well to see if there is anything on either end of this pipeline that we can find -- any other people involved -- that could be criminally liable as well," said Floyd County Prosecutor Keith Henderson.
Police estimate the street value of the pot at $100,000. Both Kersey and her husband, Frank Lucchese, were charged.
The most serious charge -- for dealing more than 10 pounds of marijuana -- carries a 2- to 8-year sentence.
"Whether it's marijuana, or whether it's LSD or whether it's crack, it's all poison," said Henderson. "It's poison to our kids. It's poison to members of our community and we have someone here who we've charged with profiting for dealing that poison."
Kersey and Lucchese were both released on a $2,500 bond. We contacted Lucchese at his home, but he declined to comment.
An official with the Floyd County Democratic party confirmed that Kersey ran for mayor of New Albany in both 1999 and 2003, but did not win the nomination. She has not been active in the party since losing the second nomination.

Wow, that is just sad. Why would anyone invite cops over for ANY reason when they are not only growing but have 10 pounds of pre-packed weed.
She was probably stoned when she got idea. >.<

Sure its "poison", but in a free society people ought to be able to choose if they want to "poison"/poison themselves. It's not like drug dealers are shoving these drugs down kids throats. I wonder why they don't stop to consider why these kids would want to get stoned or cracked out.

As for alcohol and tobacco, they're legal, so I guess they're not poison. After all, if it's not illegal, it's good for you! And vice versa!
Typical bullshit.

I love how they consider marijuana a poison. These people have to get their heads out of their ass'es. I myself have injested alot of LSD, Shrooms and of course, marijuana and I am far from dead(I might feel dead right now due to no coffee yet but I'm working on that).
